Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times Judith‎ Lasater Restorative

Relax and Renew: Restful Yoga for Stressful Times by Judith Hanson Lasater is a foundational guide to restorative yoga, a gentle practice designed to counteract the effects of chronic stress and promote deep relaxation. Lasater, a pioneer in this field, introduces readers to supported poses—like the Basic Relaxation Pose (Savasana)—that use props to allow the body to fully release tension. The book includes: * A general restorative sequence for daily practice. * Targeted routines for back pain, headaches, insomnia, jet lag, and breathing issues. * Special sections for women during menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. * Quick practices for busy days, including "yoga at your desk" and the "Totally Invisible Relaxation." * Guidance on props, breathing techniques, and how to create a calming environment. It's a nurturing, accessible manual for anyone—regardless of age or flexibility—looking to slow down and reconnect with stillness.
